Snerpende koue word vanaf vandag verwag, met ryp wat môre in dele van //Kharas, Hardap, Khomas, Omaheke, Otjozondjupa, noordoostelike Erongo, suidoostelike Kunene and suidwestelike Omusati moontlik is. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met weerkenner Albertina Anderson gepraat:
Die Namibiese Mededingingskommissie sê sy ondersoek na beweerde anti-mededingende gedrag deur Ultimate Safaris en drie Kunene-bewaringsgebiede sal voortgaan, ten spyte van kritiek van toerisme-operateurs en natuurbewaarders. Kritici, insluitend dr. Chris Brown, voer aan dat die kommissie eerder Namibia Wildlife Resorts se oorheersing in nasionale parke en die Sossusvlei-pendeldiens moet ondersoek. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met die komissie se woordvoerder Dina //Gowases gepraat.
Meer as 600 Ovahimba en Ovatjimba in die Epupa-kiesafdeling in die Kunene-streek sê hulle is nie behoorlik geraadpleeg oor die beplande Baynes-hidroëlektriese dam van 840 megawatt nie. Gemeenskappe vrees dat die gesamentlike Kunenerivier-projek met Angola hul grond, lewensonderhoud en toegang tot water kan beïnvloed. Die ontwikkeling sal ‘n reuse dam, paaie en transmissielyne insluit. Hans-Christian Mahnke van die internasionale nie-regeringsorganisasie International Rivers het aan Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gesê die gemeenskappe is geregtig op insluiting by besluite.
Die 2024 Big Give Christmas Appeal het meer as 1,9 miljoen Namibiese dollar ingesamel om Save the Rhino Trust internasionaal se sogenaamde Mounted Patrol Unit in die Kunene-streek te ondersteun. Die span, wat met donkies in bergagtige terrein patrolleer, het in 2025 meer as 118 renosters gesien aangeteken en 624 kilometer afgelê. Danksy die fondse is nuwe kampfasiliteite by Axab opgerig, waaronder sonkrag en satelliet-WiFi, wat die veldwagter baie goed bystaan. Twee diere is verlede jaar aan stropery verloor. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met die trust se hoof uitvoerende beampte, Simson Uri-Khob gepraat.
Cran het 'n belegging van 42,1 miljoen Namibiese dollar onder Fase 2 van die Universele Diensfonds aangekondig om digitale toegang in landelike gemeenskappe uit te brei. Die projek sal nege nuwe netwerktorings in die Karas, Kavango-Wes, Kunene, Ohangwena en Oshikoto-streke oprig. Cran-woordvoerder Mufaro Nesongano sê tot dusver is 39 persent van die werk voltooi, met 22,6 miljoen dollar wat reeds uitbetaal is.

Die Namibiese Natuurstigting is steeds besig met 'n studie om groenseeskilpad-bevolkings by die Kunene-riviermond te ondersoek. Voorlopige tellings het minstens 60 tot 70 groenseeskilpaaie binne slegs 500 meter van die riviermonding aangeteken. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met navorser Francois Theart gepraat wat sê hierdie telling dui daarop dat die gebied moontlik die hoogste digtheid van groenseeskilpaaie in Namibië huisves. Hy het meer:
Matig tot swaar reënval word van vanaand in die Kunene-, Erongo- en Otjozondjupa-streke verwag wat Dinsdag na die Sentraal-Noorde en Khomas-streek uitbrei. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met weerkenner, George van der Merwe gepraat.
Die landbouministerie se landwye veldtog oor bek-en-klouseer is vandag in sy vierde dag. Vier spanne is sover ontplooi in die Omaheke-, Otjozondjupa-, Oshikoto-, Karas-, Hardap-, Kunene- en Erongo-streke. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met die woordvoerder van die ministerie, Romeo Muyunda gepraat. Hy gee meer inligting.
Welcome to BizNews Daybreak with Alec Hogg. In today's jam-packed Monday episode, we cover the latest overnight market movements, including gold soaring past $5,000 an ounce and Sasol's massive 17% jump in the past week (12% on Friday). In this episode, we unpack: Global Conflict: US President Donald Trump wants his NATO allies to join the war against Iran. We feature insights from Retired Colonel Joel Rayburn, who worked in the Trump Administration, on the severe military imbalance in the region. Johannesburg Mayoral Race: A fiery debate over the future of Joburg was set between the DA's Helen Zille and the Patriotic Alliance's Kenny Kunene. There was just one problem: only Zille showed up. Listen to her unapologetic take on her opponent's disappearing act. South African Economy: Economist Dawie Roodt is in typical truth-bombing form, arguing that an overpaid, 'parasitic' civil service is actively bankrupting South Africa. Market Safe Havens: Could US tech stocks be a surprisingly safe bet right now?. The FT's Emily Herbert explains how the ongoing conflict in the Middle East has driven a rush to Silicon Valley. Stay ahead of the curve. For the full interviews and more expert analysis, visit BizNews.com. If you enjoyed today's show, please hit the Like button, Subscribe, and share it with your network!
For today's NdB Sunday Show, Chris Steyn invited the Democratic Alliance's Helen Zille and the Patriotic Alliance's Kenny Kunene to debate. Only Zille made the show. She outlined her five commitments over five years should she be elected Joburg's next Mayor. She also responded to previously reported attacks on her by Kunene, including that she is out of touch with Johannesburg's challenges; that she is a reject of Cape Town, and that she should stay at home and look after her great grandchildren, by saying: “Well, I'm sure I have got a lot more energy than Kenny Kunene because I've been all over Joburg all the time and I never see him… I only see him in the nightlife, in the nightclubs, in all the Instagram posts with the Slay Queens as they call them…He's got a busy life. He's got a busy night life. He's got a busy time running around between his different underworld connections and trying to get people not to contradict his statements. That's a busy life. I have a life focused...on meeting the people of Joburg, listening to the people of Joburg, listening to their solutions for the problems for Joburg and getting a plan together to fix Joburg. So I have a busy life doing that.” Zille also comments on the reasons behind PA Leader Gayton McKenzie's relentless support for President Cyril Ramaphosa.
In 'n verstommende vertoning van uithouvermoë wat bewaringsbewustes betower het, het 'n olifant met 'n satellietkraag, bekend as "Bul 6", 'n geskiedkundige trek van 590-kilometer deur Namibië se dorre Noordweste in slegs 14 dae voltooi. Die reis, waartydens die bul elke 36 uur 'n meedoënlose pas gelykstaande aan 'n marathon gehandhaaf het, het effektief drie afsonderlike en geskeide olifantbevolkings oorbrug: die woestyn-aangepaste kuddes van die Kunene, die inwoners van die hooglande en die reuse van die Etosha Nasionale Park. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met professor Morgan Hauptfleisch, die hoof van navorsing by die Namibiese Natuurstigting gepraat.
Namibië het een van sy grootste gemeenskaps-klimaataanpassingsprojekte afgehandel. Die Omgewingsbeleggingsfonds het die vyfjaar-Irema-inisiatief van 10 miljoen Amerikaanse dollar in Sesfontein, Fransfontein en Warmquelle in die Kunene-streek suksesvol voltooi. Die projek is in 2018 deur die Groen Klimaatfonds goedgekeur en saam met die landbouministerie geïmplementeer. Dit het groenskemas en boorgate gerehabiliteer, 2 500 droogtebestande bokke versprei, vroeë waarskuwingsweerstelsels en sonkragbesproeiing geïnstalleer, en meer as 1 600 boere in klimaatslim landbou opgelei. Die fonds se woordvoerder, Romeo Muyunda, het met Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gepraat:
Diefstal van waterpompe op landbougrond is 'n groeiende bron van kommer regoor die land en in die Kunene-streek het diewe gewoeker. NamPol hoofinspekteur Florence Kuzatjike het aan Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gesê dat die jongste voorval by Plaas Eureka in die Outjo-distrik plaasgevind het, waar 'n sonkragpomp en twee CCTV-kameras gesteel is. Die waarde van die gesteelde items word op 109 000 Namibiese dollar geraam. Kuzatjike het meer.
Vir die eerste keer ooit gaan navorsers van die Namibië Natuurstigting die Kunene-riviermond besoek om honderde groenskilpaaie te bestudeer wat hierdie tyd van die jaar daar bymekaarkom. Dis dieselfde plek waar Namibië se eerste aangetekende seeskilpadnes in 2020 ontdek is, maar wetenskaplikes weet steeds nie hoekom hierdie bedreigde reuse die afgeleë riviermonding kies nie. Professor Morgan Hauptfleisch, die stigting se direkteur van navorsing, het met Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gesels.

Erge veldbrande woed steeds onverpoos op verskeie plase in die Khomas-streek en berigte van groot skade sirkuleer wyd op sosiale media en WhatsApp-groepe. Teen Saterdagaand het die brand na die Daan Viljoen-omgewing versprei. In die Khorixas-omgewing duur ‘n veldbrand reeds verskeie dae oor ‘n baie groot gebied. Terugvoering uit Kunene dui op ‘n tekort aan mannekrag en toerusting om die brand te stuit. Die goewerneur van die Kunene-streek, Vipuakuje Muharukua, het mense vermaan wat brande veroorsaak:
Dit brand opnuut in die Kunene-streek, met ‘n veldbrand wat in die Khorixas-Braunfels-omgewing woed. Volgens streekgoewerneur Vipuakuje Muharukua versprei die brand vinnig weens sterk wind en koers dit in die rigting van Damara Mopane. Muharukua het Donderdagaand met die NBC gepraat:
Veldbrande is steeds aan die gang naby Khorixas, met die Braunfels-gebied nou die middelpunt van kommer. Kunene-goewerneur Vipuakuje Muharukua het bevestig dat hoewel die vlamme rondom Fransfontein in bedwang gebring is, die brand in die Braunfels gebied oos en noord-oos versprei. Muharukua het aan Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gesê dat die Namibiese lugmag addisionele ondersteuning ontplooi het, en plaaslike instellings, insluitend boere, die Khorixas-stadsraad en private kontrakteurs, bly op die grond om die brand te beste. Muharukua het meer.
In vandag se episode gesels Ernst en Louis oor Fikile Mbalula se rassistiese uitlatings tydens die perskonferensie na afloop van die ANC se NUK-vergadering. Hy het onder meer die eerste Afrikanervlugtelinge na die VSA "karwagte" genoem – wat dit ookal veronderstel is om te beteken. Daarna kom die jongste haatspraak-uitspraak ter sprake. Kenny Kunene is deur die hof verbied om Malema voortaan weer 'n kakkerlak te noem, aangesien dit op haatspraak sou neerkom. Terwyl dit vir Malema steeds baie belangrik is dat die hof bepaalde ander uitlatings nié as haatspraak beskou nie.Die Podlitiek-span bestaan uit: Louis BoshoffErnst van Zyl Arno Roodt
Die gesondheidsministerie sê daar is ongeveer 161 ongevulde gesondheidsorgposte in die Kunene-streek, as gevolg van die gebrek aan begroting vir nuwe aanstellings. Walters Kamanya, die woordvoerder by gesondheid sê sodra begrotingsverligting beskikbaar gestel word, sal die ministerie 'n wye reeks maatreëls implementeer, soos 'n landelike ontberingstoelaag vir gesondheidswerkers om hulle na landelike gebiede te lok.

Die Verkiesingskommissie is ten volle voorbereid vir die aanvullende kieserregistrasie wat vandag begin en tot 19 Augustus duur, met 4 233 registrasiepunte en 696 opgeleide spanne oor al 14 streke. Vervoer, insluitend NDF-helikopters, sal afgeleë gebiede in streke soos Zambezi en Kunene bereik, en die polisie sal sekuriteit verseker. Die kommissie beoog om die oorblywende 10 persent van stemgeregtigde kiesers, ongeveer 161 000 mense, te registreer wat verlede jaar se registrasie gemis het of besonderhede moet opdateer, voor die streeks- en plaaslike owerheidsverkiesings in November. De Wet Siluka, die kommissie se woordvoerder.
Tydens sy streeksrede vandag het die goewerneur van Kunene, Vipuakuje Muharukua, beklemtoon dat malaria steeds kommerwekkend voorkom in die streek. Hoewel geen malariaverwante sterftes aangeteken is nie, is nege cholera-gevalle aangemeld, insluitend een sterfte. Hy sê die uitbreking is wel onder beheer.
Bongani Bingwa speaks to Tshidi Madia, Associate Political Editor, as she brings sharp insight and political depth to another turbulent week in South African politics on The Political Desk. She unpacks the investigation into Kenny Kunene, found at the home of a murder accused, and questions whether this could damage his standing in Johannesburg or be another scandal he survives. They then examine President Ramaphosa’s suspension of Andrew Chauke, alleged to have enabled State Capture—probing whether this move is genuine accountability or political optics. Madia also reflects on the ousting of Nkabane and the entry of Buti Manamela into Higher Education, questioning if it's about performance or ANC factionalism. In her Politricking segment, she revisits her conversation with Helen Zille, drawing sharp contrasts between her governance vision and the current instability within the ANC. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

The Patriotic Alliance (PA) scored a shock win last night over the Democratic Alliance (DA) in a Paarl in a ward where it got 43% of the vote after getting only 1% there in 2021. Elections analyst Wayne Sussman tells BizNews: “…this means that Gayton McKenzie and the Patriotic Alliance are edging closer and closer to the City of Cape Town. If they can win seats off the DA in the DA stronghold of Mossel Bay, in places like Amstelhof Paarl, what can they do to the Democratic Alliance in the City of Cape Town? So, I would sense that there's great concern for the DA at DA headquarters today.” The PA win came despite the suspension of PA Deputy President Kenny Kunene after he was found at the Sandton home of a murder suspect. Sussman says: “ I think that this will have no impact on the PA in the Western Cape or the Northern Cape or the Eastern Cape. However, in Gauteng, this could present a challenge… …to the PA amongst its Black voters.” In other by-election results, Sussman comments on the African National Congress (ANC) seeing its vote share fall to 37% in a ward in the traditional stronghold of Sebokeng. “So this is major turbulence, major upheaval in a core Gauteng township. And I believe that this basically could be a harbinger of things to come in the next local government elections.”
Clement Manyathela and the listeners discuss various issues like Kenny Kunene’s explanation for visiting murder accused Katiso Molefe. They also discuss possible amendments to marriage laws that will be tabled in Parliament soon.

Die Namibiese Mededingingskommissie sal van vandag tot 18 Julie openbare konsultasies in die noordelike streke aanbied. Die uitreiksessies in Kunene, Omusati, Ohangwena, Oshana en Oshikoto is daarop gemik om bewustheid te verhoog oor billike mededinging en die kommissie se rol in die bevordering van 'n voorspoedige, inklusiewe ekonomie.
